By Stephen Vagg Wollongong Workshop Theatre August 2007
What is the capital of Columbia? What is the state flower of NSW? What is the secret to happiness? Trivia is a new laugh-out-loud Australian comedy that talks about the important things in life. We are thrown into the lives of five almost-thirty year-old Brisbanites, now living in Sydney, who are still searching for the answers to those elusive questions: What's it all about? How do we make our lives worth it? Where the hell am I going? This play has everything a good modern comedy should have: Beer, love triangles, fights, fake orgasms and, of course, trivia. This trivia-mad group of friends form a team and enter a competition in a local Sydney pub. During the course of several weeks, the team progresses to the final and their lives change irrevocably.
